Of course, everyone wants candy on Halloween, but this year St. John trick-or-treaters can get something special to bring home that can be enjoyed more than once.
Volunteers from The Little Free Library will be giving out free books to children at Mongoose Junction in Cruz Bay on Friday, starting at 3 p.m.
The giveaway has become a tradition started several years ago by a St. John book club. This year, volunteer Jeannie Bishop has collected boxes of children’s books sent by ”so many generous teachers in Georgia.” Bishop said the book giveaway is especially important as the St. John Library remains closed. Many children’s books have already been distributed to classrooms on St. John and to Little Free Library sites throughout the island.
